CPAN code search

I've just released a perl plugin for gonzui, a source code search engine (open source koders.com) and made a commit to SF.net CVS.

With support for Perl, now I've mirrored mini-cpan on my server and run a gonzui server instance for CPAN code search. You can search source code from 10000+ CPAN contributed perl modules!

I used PPI to tokenize perl code (Thanks to Autrijus) and my code based on PPI::Tokenizer is not functinal enough, so as it doesn't support function definition and method calls (They're just recognized as "words"). Anybody can volunteer on this, as it's open-source stuff.
